Subject: The mayor goes inside the klub, then returns with a handful of straws.
In reply to: Rabid, happy to be here 's message, "JD, KM, KS, CW, Det. and Rabid all stand out side the Klub looking at the UFO crash in awestruck...uhm...AWE!" on 20:54:01 10/11/01 Thu

"Ok," says the mayor in her most mayoral fashion. "We're going to draw straws. It is my firm belief that it would be foolish for all of us to go into the alien ship." She glares at the crowd, thereby keeping them silent. "And you know which alien ship I mean."

The mayor walks through the crowd and everyone takes a straw. When all are distributed, they hold them up only to discover they are all the same length.

"Uh...mayor?" KS hesitantly steps forward. "I think you're supposed to make one a different length so's we know who's supposed to go into the ship." She puts her hand on her terrorist utility belt, just in case the mayor comes after her.

Not to worry. The mayor is apoplectic with rage. "SILENCE! I will decide who will go in the ship!" She takes a deep breath and starts, "Eenie meenie minie moe..."

Meanwhile, on Mount Covarrubius, Stardoe picks up the remains of her high-powered binoculars, with optional night vision attachment. She looks again at the note IG left: "Oops! Guess the lotion made my hands slippery! Here are my binoculars for you to use! I'm going back to town - I'm out of hairspray! Ta!"

Stardoe crushes the note and tosses it on the ground. Then she picks it up because, well, she's not a litterbug. "Pack out what you pack in," she always says. Or something like that. She sighs, and picks up the binoculars IG left: pink with a daisy print strap. Groaning, Stardoe looks around for a way to disguise the binocs. She grabs a handful of dirt and rubs it vigorously on the binocular casubg. When she stops to view her handiwork, she sees that it is more pink than ever.

"D'oh!" She slaps her forehead, leaving a dirt handprint. She finishes packing up camp and hops on the takhi. Something to the left catches her eye. She grabs the binoculars and looks.

"Holy canoli, batman!" She urges her takhi to a trot and heads back to town.
